I'm a Dullahan, Looking for My Head

He's looking for his neck.

When the junction was broken and the rear was followed indoors, it was like a different space there.

The ceiling is high and extends to about three stories high. Its interior is illuminated by flashing light from candlesticks attached to columns and walls and by uneven stained glass. The slightly luminous stained glass colour goes hand in hand with the warm colour caused by the candlestick, giving the impression of calm without being too cold.

"... Wow, beautiful indoors. And the air is clear."

Sisty walking next door moves her eyes as she breathes slowly.

I think this is the normal feeling, but the air is pretty bad because I was wrapped up in a junction of holy attributes that I don't like until just now.

"It's like a room full of toxic gas from me."

It would be felt as clear air as Sisty, but as far as I'm concerned, it feels cloudy and uncomfortable. Because of the junction of the sacred attributes, the air would be purified.

"Well, Duke is undead. Is your body okay?

"Something tingles on the surface of the armor. He seems to have goosebumps or something."

"Duke wouldn't have any skin."

As we were walking around saying that, Leah walking in front sent us a gaze.

Then I immediately turned forward. I didn't say anything, do you mean be quiet?

At the end of our gaze, there's a girl standing on a few steps. The temple is proud of Arianne the Virgin.

It's not Aria, the silver-haired red-eyed girl, but the first blonde blue-eyed look I've seen in the square with a gentle smile.

I think that the color of hair and eyes can change people's impressions a lot. Even the outfit is not a piece, but a luxurious coat based on white and blue. It's the perfect Virgin outfit.

When we stop nearby, Leah moves to the side of the stage and waits for her to say that's her place.

If I have to. Will that holy spear or something like that rear with the wrong spear come under attack? I'm really scared.

Then the Virgin suddenly breathed and opened her mouth.

"Welcome to the Temple of Erial, Mr. Duke, Mr. Sisty. Again, my name is Arianne and I am the Virgin of the Temple of Elial. I'm sorry I called you out of the blue today."

The Virgin's voice rings indoors like a bell.

"Yes, no"

Sisty wandering in the solemn air of the indoors and in the patriarchal appearance of the Virgin.

I can't even imagine this spraying juice in a cafe or the girl who was rambling in the square. Who is it? This guy.

I'll talk to you soon about calling Mr. Duke and the others today.

Me and Sisty strengthens our bodies in the Virgin's words.

It came fast. What the hell do they say?

Mr. Duke, the demon, will be crusaded here. That's the scariest thing, but I don't even think I need to call Sisty.

Even though the rear of the Holy Knight, which is how strong an escort is, if we are to crusade for sure, we should place more other escorts and knights......

"I said it before. I think I can see the aura that lives in people. That allows us to distinguish the species from humans, beasts, elves, dwarves, etc. Aura is also present in the demons, and Mr. Duke has the same aura as the demons. I'll ask again. Mr. Duke, you're a demon, not a human being, right?

…………

I know you're finding out, but it's a good idea to admit "yes," to this Virgin.

You received my silence as hesitant, the Virgin speaks in a gracious voice.

"I'll tell you what, even if I said it was a demon, we're not going to crusade.... as long as it doesn't harm people."

I'm afraid of that last word.

Sisty next door turns her gaze toward me worried.

"... I'm a monster indeed."

"Mr. Sisty knows that too, doesn't he?

"Yes."

Sisty nodded forcefully at an inquiry from the Virgin.

"What is Mr. Duke's name as a demon?

"….. Probably Durahan."

"I knew you were a Durahan of the Undead!

I raise my voice that the Virgin seems a little happy for some reason. Is it because speculation in the square had been hit?

"Durahan, overwhelming defense, aggression. Plus, you're a disaster-designated species that combines up to the ability to travel by a horse of death. More importantly, the power of death proclamation to unconditionally impart death to the other person is terrifying"

Nestled near the altar, Leah whines with a strange harsh face.

Disaster designated species. But you might be convinced when they say so.

Crush opponents with overwhelming power, with no magic or weapons in line. And if you travel on purple flames, no one will catch up to you.

I guess such a traveling demon is like a disaster to humans. That's why Crusade Quests are ordered as a matter of urgency.

"How can Duke pronounce death?

"If I could, I'd be using it."

Why hasn't Sisty used it before? I turn my gaze toward what I have said.

If I had such an instant death cheat, I would use it every time I meet a demon.

"Can't you use the death pronouncement? Durahan? So what about the horse of death?

Leah gives a surprised look when she hears that the death pronouncement is unavailable.

"I can call you over there."

I'm wondering, too. Speaking of Durahan, you could use a death pronouncement for an instant death move, right? Like a famous game with slimes coming out, gloriously annihilate your opponent with instant death moves.

It's a setting that doesn't work for strong characters and bosses, but it doesn't seem that way in this world, and I guess it would be easier if there were.

"Duke, can you ride a horse of death?

"Don't call a horse of death an unfathomable name. Call it purple flame."

"And, Shi Eun......?

You don't like my naming, Sisty makes such a delicate face.

Because if you actually see purple flame, you'll be convinced!

"It's weird that you can't use a death pronouncement when you say it's Durahan. As far as the aura goes, it doesn't even look like the wind that's hiding it."

The Virgin whines wonderfully as she leans her little neck.

Do you even know that? He said he could see the general emotions and so on, and he might guess from slight upset and impatience. It looks like a lie detector.

"It's not easy to flush, but let's leave it now. What I'd rather hear than hear is Mr. Duke's purpose."

"Purpose?"

"Yeah, that's right. Demons, how can Mr. Duke, the Durahan, live and be an adventurer in a city inhabited by man?"

Surely you would think it would be strange if the demons of the designated species of disaster were doing something like human beings in the Wang capital. You may also have doubts.

"There are many demons that are intelligent enough to understand human language when they become high-ranking demons. Especially since the Undead often behave according to their memories and intentions during their lifetime, some demons live peacefully like humans."

That's the Virgin who specializes in countering the undead. Seems to be familiar with the Undead demons.

"The problem is if you are acting with hatred or malice. These willed undead are so vicious, they have engraved a great deal of history many times before."

"Duke wouldn't do that."

Sisty reacts quickly to the Virgin's words. I am pleased with the trust of my partner.

"Yeah, if you look at Aura, there's no evil in her, so I don't think she's going to do that. But as the Virgin of the Temple, I have a duty to see to it that such possibilities are not prevented."

The Virgin, smiling but with clear blue eyes, turns this way. Those blue eyes seem to even reflect people's hearts.

Purpose, purpose? I accidentally stroke the replacement helmet with my finger.

This pompous sense of loss is still indescribably lonely. It's like only one piece is missing from a beautifully tidy puzzle. Such loneliness.

Maybe this one piece is a pretty big size. And maybe it's pretty important stuff.

Speaking of Durahan, a demon holding his neck aside. That would be Durahan.

I don't like this feeling of pompous emptiness in my chest.

Virgin, Sisty, Leah. As the gaze of the three pierces, I tell you clearly.

"…… My purpose is to find my neck."
